Additional safety instructions.
•
Only fill or empty the mixing drum when the motor is
running.
•
Check the stability of the mixer.
Preparing material for mixing:
1. Pour in water and few shovels full of aggregate (sand,
gravel, ...).
2. Add a few shovels full of binding agent (cement, lye, ...).
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you reach the proportions
required for mixing.
4. Allow material to mix thoroughly.
Have a professional advise you regarding the
composition and quality of the material being mixed.
Emptying the mixing drum:
Hold the rotating lever or handwheel tightly

Mortar
Transport
Concrete
Pull plug each time before transport.
•
Point the opening of the mixing drum downwards during
transport or storage.
Bearings
Storage
•
In order to increase the service life of the concrete mixer
and operate it without glitches, the rotating mechanism
should be treated with an environmentally compatible
spray oil before the mixer is put into storage for unusually
long periods.
Cleaning
Additional safety instructions
Pull plug each time before cleaning.
•
Switch off machine and pull plug if you have to touch the
machine (with hand, brush, scraper, rag, etc.) while
cleaning it.
•
Protective devices removed for cleaning must be
properly remounted before starting the machine.
•
Do not spray water directly on the motor or the switch,
nor on the ventilation apertures in the motor housing.
Notes on cleaning:
•
Before taking a break and after finishing work, clean the
concrete mixer inside and out.
•
Do not pound on the mixing drum with hard objects
(hammer, shovel, etc.). A dented mixing drum impairs
mixing operations and is difficult to clean, besides.
•
To clean the inside of the drum, put in some water and a
few shovels full of gravel and set the drum to revolving.
•
Remove any concrete or mortar left sticking to the teeth
of the axle-drive bevel gear or the crown gear segments
immediately.
Maintenance
The concrete mixer requires practically no maintenance.
The mixing drum and drive shaft are bedded on ball bearings
with permanent lubrication.
Never grease the ring gear!
